Tom on Day Side with Linda Vester December 07, 2004

U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-Littleton) expressed disappointment with the conference report on the intelligence bill after negotiators on the bill stripped key border security provisions approved by the House of Representatives in October from the bill

Check out the report cards on Tom on immigration.
Go find the report card of your Representative

I work in technology (SAP) with many foreign consultants working on H1B Visa’s. The process that these people go through is tough and costly, both personally and for the company that sponsors them. I just dont feel that it is fair that some people that have needed skills have to go through such lengths to work in the US let alone to get a green card. Then we have these unskilled people crossing our boarders with no overview of our representatives or security people. And for taking the hard risk of running across a desert and into our cities with no back ground check or sponsor, And then we are going to do nothing to stop them.

We are a nation of immigrants and even if our process is lax everyone should go through our process.
I am looking for the bill to see what it does and what it does not do for closing the boarders (north and south) they should be one way for the whiner Liberals to leave.

Update: check out this site that lists bills and there status on what Tom is doing.

The Fewer, the Prouder…the Women Marines - Someone You Should Know
Black Five has another letter from a Marine that will make you proud. This is what Leadership is all about. Americans have it and are working to keep it.

He said, “The enemy was willing to die for their cause, and you gave them their wish”.

I am so honored to be apart of an organization like this. Marines taking care of Marines with such unselfishness. As I went to Thanksgiving chow with my brothers and sisters, the IMEF Commanding General LtGen Saddler and the IMEF SgtMaj, SgtMaj Kent were serving chow.

NOT FORGOTTEN THIS TIME

This is a poem I stole from Bad Example today. He does not need the traffic like I do.

The Last Battle of Vietnam
It never occurred to me, ever before,
That our Navy would win the Vietnam War.
When they took to their boats in this year of elections,
With the mission of making some major corrections
I shared their belief, John should not be elected,
And their view overdue, truth should be resurrected.
Yet I questioned the course they’d set themselves for,
Knowing how John was loved by the media whore.

Ignored and dismissed by the media queens
Being shrewd, savvy sailors they still found the means
To reach out to the people, to open their eyes
To a phony John Kerry and his war story lies.
With their very first ad, they torpedoed his boat,
A Cambodian Christmas would no longer float.
His heroics unraveled, his stories fell flat,
Especially that one ’bout his magical hat.

John called on his lawyers and media whores,
And threatened the Swiftees with vile legal wars.
But these warriors kept charging back into the fire,
And made the folks wonder, “Is Kerry a Liar?”
Till the question of whether he’s telling the truth
Was still in their minds in the election day booth.
So the brave Swiftees gave us what we’d not had before,
They gave us our victory in the Vietnam War.

Those brave, stalwart sailors, falsely labeled as liars,
Stood firm and stood tall, kept directing their fires,
Steadfast, unrelenting, they served once again,
And defeated John Kerry, these honorable men.
All Vets can take pride, yes all, not just some,
That we won the last battle of Vietnam.
It took far too long to bring an end to our war
But we did, November Second, Two Thousand Four.

To our Brothers, forever, on that long black Wall,
You’ve been vindicated now, one and all.
